Tutor in Independence, Missouri

I'm an
Individual
Good morning! I'm Jacob Harvey, or Coach Jake as my students call me. I offer tutoring for basic, intermediate, and advanced chess players, incorporating lessons on the basic rules, tactics and strategies, opening books, middle and endgame philosophies, sportsmanship and tournament etiquette, the history and sociology of chess, and more! Research shows that students of chess show improvements in reading, math comprehension, critical thinking, memorization and retention, and a variety of other areas. I am the DIrector of Operations for the Kansas City Chess Club, and have been teaching chess for kids professionally for 2 years. I have led classes at dozens of public, private, and parochial schools, run homeschool chess clubs, and tutored a number of private students to local tournament success. I am offering private and group lessons through The Kansas City Chess Club, along with a number of other tutors with varying teaching methods and play styles.
